Carrier plate
A carrier plate is a mechanical base element in a Test Fixture that holds Contact Probes, Receptacles, and other contact components.
It ensures the precise positioning of the contact elements and forms the structural foundation for a reliable connection between the test system and the device under test.
Depending on the adapter design, the carrier plate may be permanently integrated or designed as a replaceable element. A precision-machined carrier plate supports stable contact conditions, reproducible measurement results, and efficient maintenance of the test system.
FAQ
A carrier plate precisely positions the contact elements and provides a stable mechanical base in the test setup.
Key requirements include dimensional accuracy, mechanical stability, suitable material properties, and precise alignment with the Contact Probes and the test specimen.
Carrier plates are used in Test Fixtures, interchangeable cassettes, and contact systems.
